The Incredible Hulk, Louis Leterrier Movie
In my mind, with change whole range of players and the director of movies before. Making The Incredible Hulk to be better. That’s my opinion first before watching. Well, that assumption was incorrect. The film is clearly not uncommon, although perhaps a little better with Hulk from Ang Lee. …
Tattoed Life movie
This is one of Suzuki’s films that is most unlike the major part of his work. The narrative is of the same style as his other films, but here I think he goes much deeper into the personalities of his characters and gives a more moving portrait of human …

Sin City (2005 movie)
A great telling of the stories by Frank Miller. It’s dark, it’s mysterious, it’s dangerous, and as the tagline says…”Walk down the right back alley in Sin City and you can find anything.” Of all the many stories that were told, the best one to me is the story …

Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer
Whenever Hollywood produces a movie about superheroes that is successful at the box office, it isn’t unusual to see them attempt to make a sequel. Usually, the sequel is nowhere near as good as the original.

When I …

Valentine’s Day (2010) movie
Valentine’s day was pretty much set up to do great, from its very release. The cast they had was just ridiculous in size and talent. It ranges from Julia Roberts to Taylor Swift in the most experienced actors to ones with very little experience.
The story itself is very …

Cromartie High School, Anime series

The Death of Richie movie
Wow. I almost hated to watch this movie again because it’s a heartbreaker, and more than that, it’s a true story. That’s why it rips through me. I remember watching this in 1977. I remember reading about it. I believe it was Parade that did a …

The Death of Stalin, movie (2017)
I watched the acclaimed film The Death of Stalin. What can I say? A good comedy, similar to Monty Python’s work - in some places absurdist humor that makes the film funny in the best sense of the word.
The plot does not sag anywhere. It is interesting to watch from …
Yankee Doodle Goes to Town movie short
I actually just stumbled upon this movie short from 1939 while looking for something to watch on television. It’s called Yankee Doodle Goes to Town, and it’s definitely a pro-America, pro-democracy creation. It’s theme is that America continues to rise up, to defeat its foes, and that …

I watched this movie a few months ago. I was totally enthralled in the plot. It kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time. I wasn’t very impressed when they killed the main characters long lost love. I also found it to be a little more …

For my twenieth birthday, three friends of mine dragged me to the movie theater to see the new 2008 film Vantage Point. I had not heard of the film, but I was not interested. I’d have preferred simply to hang out at a friend’s house and play cards. Begrudgingly, …

Movie: Superhero Movie

I have seen a lot of “spoof” movies in the past and have had mixed opinions about them. Most of them …
Pain and Gain Movie
The stories in which large muscles are combined with a brain of a bird often seem comical, but I feel that a deeper analysis can establish that there is a vast drama concealed in them. The audience members can be deeply mistaken if they think that the term “meathead” …
Love and a .45 (1994)
“Love and a .45″ is an absolutely fantastic movie in my book and I have watched it dozens of times over the years. This film has its flaws, but overall is an excellent way to pass the time. There is action, drama, and comedy all rolled into one that …

National Lampoon’s European Vacation movie
I have seen all of the National Lampoon Vacation movies. Christmas vacation is easily the worst of the four but I think European Vacation is one of those movies that isn’t as good as the first “Family Vacation” or the last, “Vegas Vacation.”
That’s not to say it is a …

The Devil & Daniel Webster Movie
You won’t see Hollywood make this type of a movie today, oh no. It’s got “religion” in it, you see, the characters go to church and read their Bible, and all that is taken seriously, no one makes fun of them for it. God-fearing people are actually presented as …

What a complete croc…in other words, it’s utter CRAP!!! Characters were under-developed and unconvincing, storyline was dumn and hard to follow, CGI was poorly done and, oh yeah, it’s CRAP (did I say that already?). It makes no sense wasting words to describe how terrible this movie is, so, …
